Loud, Louder, Louder… New signal light tower, makes some noise!

For Immediate Release

Think Automation and beyond …

“Innovative”, “Sleek”, “Aesthetically pleasing”, and even “Sexy” were some of the words used to describe the standard version of the LD6A light tower when it was introduced in 2009. Very unusual to hear the word “sexy” when describing products built for industrial use, but the unique styling of the IDEC LD6A signal light tower achieved just that..

 

Since its introduction 12 months ago, many users have switched to using the LD6A giving them improvements in the machine design. The innovative oval design, not the industry standard round light tower, coupled with the marking strip provides and great alternative for the user.

 

Now this signal light tower is about to make some noise…

 

IDEC have added the features of a buzzer and also a flashing option to provide an alarm function within the base unit of the signal light. The buzzer offers a clear and audible sound (3.3kHz, 70 to 90dB) with an adjustable volume control and 2 tone variations which are selected by a control wire. This addition also includes a flashing option, again controlled by the electrical signals to the base unit. All the LED modules (super bright LED technology) are the same as the non-alarm type signal light tower, it is just the base that is different, therefore common components makes inventory easy to manage for the user. As with the standard version, four mounting options are available (direct mount, pole mount, wall mount and frame mount).

Other features:

Supply Voltage: 24vac/dc
Lens colours: Red, Yellow, Green, Blue and Pure White LED modules, (Option: all colours are also available with a clear lens)
IP Rating: Standard version IP65, Alarm version IP54
Sounder: Ergonomically designed alarm sound (3.3kHz, 2 different sounds) spread 360degrees, adjustable volume (70 to 90dB)
Mounting styles: Frame mounting, Wall mounting, Pole mounting and Base mounting
